Hey Doug,
I find myself browsing the site quite often on my phone. The mobile version of the site is great and easy to navigate and use. but sometimes I would like to switch over to the full version of the site and I cannot. Is there a way to do this?

depending on your phone there used to be a link at the bottom for the full version
BUT There is code running that is supposed to detect your phone browser and send you to the light version very time
it may be that your phones browser could be added to the exceptions

if you can figure out what the "user agent string" for opera mini is I can add it to the exceptions

This should be it:
Opera/9.60 (J2ME/MIDP; Opera Mini/4.2.13918/724; U; en) Presto/2 2.0
If you add this as an exception, that means that when I upgrade Opera Mini, the exception would have to be updated as well correct?
Btw, the only links that I see from my phone are the style links and they all take me to the lite site. Nothing to actually allow me to go to the full site.

Doesn't Opera have an option in the settings where you can set it to show up like a pc instead of mobile?

I think you're referring to how Opera renders the page. Yes it does, but talonclub has code to redirect you to the lite site if it thinks you're a mobile device.
Basically, I always see the "PDA or Dial Up Style".

I think you broke it Doug. I tried checking TALON and NLOC from my phone earlier and both came up in default web browser mode (not phone, or "lite" mode)
